Aaron & Austin Rhodes Open Up About Coming Out To Their Father In Viral YouTube Vid: "It Was The Scariest Moment Of My Life"

Last week, YouTube twins, Aaron & Austin Rhodes, came out to their father in a super emotional video that struck a cord with tons of other LGBT teens struggling to do the same thing. The video went viral, garnering 14 million views in just five days and really shed light on how scary and challenging it can be to come out to your parents when you don't know how they'll respond.

Talk show host Ellen Degeneres was so moved by the powerful video that she invited the twins and their dad on the Ellen Degeneres Show to talk more about the super emotional moment.
